If you haven't tried this place yet you should. I haven't found many Japanese/sushi bars in Santa Fe, but I would go out on a limb and say this is one of the best. Not only is the food fresh and delicious, but the service is also super friendly and accommodating. The restaurant staff treats you like family. I'm eager to try a few more things on the menu and discover the nice sake list. We enjoyed the plate of assorted nigiri. We also tried various rolls that were all good: New Mexico roll, veggie roll, spicy tuna roll, eel roll, and a couple more. I would recommend this restaurant.

We went to El Nido for Thanksgiving, the food was good although our table was served after others even though we arrived and ordered first. We figured it was just due to being busy so we decided to try the Sushi side a couple of weeks later. Turns out that the experience was even worse the second time around. We were left to wait for 30 minutes before the waitress took our order, while she tended to all the others around us (same waitress from our previous visit). We were not brought the proper dishes for our sushi and had to wait another 15 minutes to get her attention after our food was brought out before we could eat. Food was great, but the price was too high given the extraordinarily poor service. Finally, after she brought the bill out, we had to wait while she had a twenty minute conversation with another table before she came for the payment. All in all, I am not sure why we were deemed less worthy of proper service, but, as it happened twice I can only assume it had to do with our ethnicity or some other outward factor/appearance. Suffice it to say, we shall not be returning to this restaurant as we did not feel valued as customers in any way.

The food was excellent. However I strongly object that the Omikase at $90 per person was the only option. I thorougly enjoyed Masa's sushi at Sushi Land East. I was exited to sample El Nido Su. But a $271 bill for dinner, with no warning that the Omikase was the only possibility, is too much to ask. I will not be back unless the restaurant can offer more variety and more reasonably priced options.

Firstly it is very nice to have a quality Japanese establishment in Santa Fe. The fish is high quality and service very attentive. The value is sub par as you can get better quality fish for a lower price in other establishments nearby.

First presentation of sashimi, sushi and grilled fish was excellent and more than enough as the entire meal. The miso soup was delicate and delicious. Next up was a soba noodle soup and a trio of tempura seafood. I enjoyed the soba noodle soup for the taste and texture of the noodles as well as the soup. The tempura seafood was not what I expected - doughy, not light and crisp. The mango cheesecake tasted good but did not seem in character with a Japanese dinner.

While we loved the food, especially the first course (the sashimi), we hope that the chef will consider an a la carte menu in the future. The fixed price meal was too much food, and expensive.

It was our anniversary, and we decided to have a sushi counter experience so we could watch Chef Masa at work and we chose the Omakase experience—letting the chef make the selections. The sashimi and sushi for the first course were generous and outstanding; the tempura second course smaller, thank goodness, and delicious; and the dessert of flourless chocolate cake magnificent. Talking to Chef Masa and his able young assistant Kellen from time to time during the meal was most enjoyable, too!

We started with yummy martini's. Served with edamame and cucumber. I thought the first delicious course of mainly sushi/sashimi could have easily made for the entire main course. It was all served at once on a wooden board. There were 5 different items on the board from a home made broth with tofu, unagi roll, tuna, and 2 others. A lovely home made miso came next. The last main course of tempura seemed to miss the mark, a tad heavy. Panna Cotta finished us off. Su has a decent saki menu. There was a lot of food. In fact I would have been happy with the first main served individually in 5 courses. Much more elegant and a better pace. A great addition to Santa Fe.

Su Nido needs to post their prices somewhere, anywhere. Service was exceptional. We were served right away. Would be nice if one can choose what to eat and not to eat. Not everyone can eat the same amount of food. Didn't like potatoes and cauliflower in the miso soup. Large pieces of vegetables in the salad are difficult to eat with chopsticks. Very pricey. Will not be going back anytime soon. Like Izanami better.

A beautiful and memorable evening! The dining room nestled within El Nido is lovely, the service was excellent, and the food was terrific. The four of us loved the Omakase--five courses perfectly paced, and we didn't have to make any choices. Each course was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. I have truly never seen such gorgeous platters of sushi. Bring an appetite! I didn't eat anything all day in preparation and was glad I arrived hungry!

We arrived about 10 minutes early, but they seated us graciously, and by name. The room was intimate and attractive. The server was professional and very sweet, and helped us select a sake. When the first course came out, I was convinced it was the entire meal. Each item on the platter was whimsically prepared and very tasty, as were the other courses. The server, and even the chef, pretended my halting Japanese was amazing. Very cordial and diplomatic people. The respectful, welcoming culture of the Japanese people really showed through. We left full and happy and will definitely be back.

The idea of the room is fabulous as Masa is a master chef. We went to sushi land east alot! If you have a big appetite and deep pockets who likes the chef to decide what you eat look no further. We loved it-once. 5 people with one bottle of sake and a good tip=$700. To go back we’d like to see a smaller menu as an option. 3 courses not 5. However, it is more than a meal-it is a full experience with great wait staff and gourmet presentation.

We went to the Su room before the opera. They serve a chief’s choice menu which was adjusted for my gluten sensitivity. The sashimi was wonderful with eight types of fresh fish, octopus and tuna “salad”. The miso soup had added vegetables and was excellent. The tempura was also excellent as was the pana cota.
